[QUOTE="FORDSVTPARTS, post: 11078425, member: 21307"] It's all about personal preference, I gaurantee you though that the SVT has FAR more space inside than a Contour has. It may not have the rear seat legroom but for hauling, we went camping a few weeks ago and I had three bikes on the roof and in back a tent, chairs, sleeping bags, luggage, pillows, bike helmets, and another bike. Almost everything for the family of five to go camping although the wife did haul the coolers and two kids in her car. Powerwise, a properly running, well tuned SVT has decent torque and top end pull, tuning is key. Clutch feel could have been due to the clutch the car has in it currently compared to others you've driven. Don't expect much for fuel economy either, I average in the low to mid 20s with mine and got a best ever of 31mpg on a trip where I got stuck in 60mph two lane traffic, second half of that drive on three lane interstate I got 27.5mpg with the cruise set at around 80mph.
